Christmas in Kent 2018

Andy Pickering, head of network at Royal Mail, urged customers to post all Christmas mail as early as possible.

He said: "In the modern world, it is easy to forget that it can still take a long time to reach some destinations by land and sea.

"We don't want anyone to be disappointed if they are waiting for Christmas mail.

"As always, we urge customers to post all mail as early as possible as Royal Mail builds up to its busiest time of year."

There will be no delivery and collection service from Christmas Eve through to Boxing day, however normal service will resume on Thursday December 27.

On New Year’s Eve and New Year's Day there will be no deliveries or collections. In Scotland, January 2 is a bank holiday so there will be no deliveries or collections north of the border.
